We introduce a harmonic analysis for a class of affine iteration models in $\br^d$. Using Hilbert-space geometry, we develop a new duality notion for affine and contractive iterated function systems (IFSs) and we construct some identities…

We consider iterated function systems (IFS) in ${\mathbb R}^d$ for $d\ge 3$ of the form $\{f_j(x) = \lambda {\mathcal O} x + a_j\}_{j=0}^m$, with $a_0=0$ and $m\ge 1$. Here $\lambda\in (0,1)$ is the contraction ratio and ${\mathcal O}$ is…

The ergodic decomposition of a family of Hua-Pickrell measures on the space of infinite Hermitian matrices is studied. Firstly, we show that the ergodic components of Hua-Pickrell probability measures have no Gaussian factors, this extends…

The affinity dimension is a number associated to an iterated function system of affine maps, which is fundamental in the study of the fractal dimensions of self-affine sets. De-Jun Feng and the author recently solved a folklore open…

Let $X=\bigcup\varphi_{i}X$ be a strongly separated self-affine set in $\mathbb{R}^2$ (or one satisfying the strong open set condition). Under mild non-compactness and irreducibility assumptions on the matrix parts of the $\varphi_{i}$, we…

Let $X$ be a measure space with a measure-preserving action $(g,x) \mapsto g \cdot x$ of an abelian group $G$. We consider the problem of understanding the structure of measurable tilings $F \odot A = X$ of $X$ by a measurable tile $A…

The main result of this note, Theorem 2, is the following: a Borel measure on the space of infinite Hermitian matrices, that is invariant under the action of the infinite unitary group and that admits well-defined projections onto the…

Let $F$ be a field of characteristic zero and $W$ be an associative affine $F$-algebra satisfying a polynomial identity (PI). The codimension sequence associated to $W$, $c_n(W)$, is known to be of the form $\Theta (c n^t d^n)$, where $d$…

Let $F$ be a finite field of order $q$ and characteristic $p$. Let $\mathbb{Z}_F=F[t]$, $\mathbb{Q}_F=F(t)$, $\mathbb{R}_F=F((1/t))$ equipped with the discrete valuation for which $1/t$ is a uniformizer, and let…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $\fa$ an ideal of $R$. We intend to establish the dual of two Faltings' Theorems for local homology modules of an Artinian module. As a consequence of this, we show that, if $A$ is an Artinian…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be Polish spaces with non-atomic Borel measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ of full support. Suppose that $T$ and $S$ are ergodic non-singular homeomorphisms of $(X,\mu)$ and $(Y,\nu)$ with continuous Radon-Nikodym derivatives. Suppose…

Gromov introduced two distance functions, the box distance and the observable distance, on the space of isomorphism classes of metric measure spaces and developed the convergence theory of metric measure spaces. We investigate several…

Recently the authors D. Bravo, M. Lanzilotta, O. Mendoza and J. Vivero gave a generalization of the concept of Igusa-Todorov algebra and proved that those algebras, named Lat-Igusa-Todorov (LIT for short), satisfy the finitistic dimension…

We investigate maximal tori in the Hochschild cohomology Lie algebra $HH^1(A)$ of a finite dimensional algebra $A$, and their connection with the fundamental groups associated to presentations of $A$. We prove that every maximal torus in…

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety equipped with a dominant rational self-map $\phi:X\to X$. A new quantity measuring the interaction of $(X,\phi)$ with trivial dynamical systems is introduced; the stabilised algebraic dimension of $(X,\phi)$…

V. Fock [7] introduced an interesting function $\psi(x)$, $x \in {\mathbb R}$ related to Markov numbers. We explain its relation to Federer-Gromov's stable norm and Mather's $\beta$-function, and use this to study its properties. We prove…

We study the multifractal analysis of self-similar measures arising from random homogeneous iterated function systems. Under the assumption of the uniform strong separation condition, we see that this analysis parallels that of the…
